Sex Rackets Involving Young Girls Being Run From Rented Rooms After Nagpur Police Began Raiding Spas, Salons and Parlours: Report

Nagpur, September 23: In the wake of intensified police raids targeting spas, salons, and parlours, sex rackets in Nagpur are increasingly operating from rented apartments. This shift is notable across multiple locations, including Besa, Pipla, Hudkeshwar, Dighori, Pardi, Waddhamna, and Wathoda. Authorities have conducted over 50 raids, revealing a disturbing trend where girls as young as 15 and 25 are lured into the flesh trade for quick financial gain. With clients ranging from white-collar professionals to local businessmen, these operations have flourished in the privacy of rented rooms, evading law enforcement scrutiny.

As reported by the Times of India, the emergence of this new model for sex work is driven by the need for discretion, as traditional venues face increasing police scrutiny. With hotel operators required to maintain visitor records and install surveillance systems, many racketeers have opted for the anonymity that rented apartments provide. This allows them to conduct their business away from prying eyes, often in sparsely populated areas where residents may be less vigilant or unwilling to report suspicious activities. Sex Racket Busted in Navi Mumbai: Prostitution Racket Busted by Police, Autorickshaw Driver Arrested; 8 Women Rescued.

As per the report, the surge in police activity has led to a marked increase in the number of young girls entering the sex trade, often driven by financial pressures and the allure of quick cash. Many of these girls come from middle-class backgrounds, seeking to support their lifestyles or fund various addictions. The ongoing economic challenges appear to be pushing them into a risky environment where they face exploitation. Sex Racket Busted in Pune: Crime Branch Bust Prostitution Racket Running From Thai Spa, Rescue Four Women.

The average earnings range from INR 3,000 to INR 5,000 per client, with additional tips based on their services, making the allure of this trade hard to resist for those in financial distress. This has made the trade particularly attractive to young girls, who may earn substantial amounts in a short time. Police efforts aim to dismantle these networks and rescue those caught in the trade. However, the complexity of the situation is underscored by reports of rescued girls often remaining supportive of their exploiters, driven by the same desires that initially led them into the industry.
